Guys, we can use your support. I know this is not boating related, and not something that I participate in typically, but it has hit very close to home to myself and many I care for. A petition is being sent around to name American 787 after Andrew McMorris. This 12-year-old boy, was a...

Calling all audio gurus, I need some diagnostic help! At low volumes, I'm hearing a noise out the SUB Woofer. It sounds like a clipping or a POP Some background on my setup. I have all the speakers powered from 1 AMP in both the Cockpit and the Bridge of the boat. In the cockpit are the...

Does anybody have a picture of the 16pin plug on the radio? I was working behind the radio and it fell, pulling a handful of the wires (the pins) out of the plug. I dont know the orientation to put them back in. Picture, or wiring diagram with location would be huge here. Thanks!

2 weeks ago I wiped down my closets with Cedar Oil to bring back the fragrance. I found this strange crystallization growing. Any thoughts as to what this is? Is it a mold?

Does anybody sync audio across multiple boats or devices in a raft or marina? I've tried the inexpensive FM Transmitter thing, and the quality is poor. Bluetooth splitters is an option, but that is mostly pairing 2 devices and the range is limited. I'm thinking that if we join all our phones...

Conserving water on the boat has proven to be a "challenge" for for my family. Our previous boat we had a 28 gallon tank that we'd blow through in 1 day. On this boat we have 110 gallons, and we empty that in 2 days. You do the math, I'm not about to figure the why.....what I know is that to...

I've been a NBOA customer for several years, and generally very happy. They have done a very good job in shopping and maintaining a consistent premiums on my past 2 boats, with only a slight increase each year ($25-$30 increase). This year, however was a pretty drastic jump ($160), and I...

Certain marinas require us to keep a dinghy off the bow, which makes boarding a problem. I've done the lowering of the anchor (using it as a step), and thought about picking up a rope ladder....curious as to others that have this situation, and what their solution has been.

The wife has been decorating the boat, and now wants to hang some pictures. I cringe at drilling holes for a not so permanent installation, so what is everybody using? I found a Command brand velcro wall hanger on Amazon. Command Large Picture Hanging Does anybody have experience with...

I have a DeAngelo exhaust elbow on the Port engine, and it has started to leak (rust was forming in the bilge directly underneath). Opening up the system, the stainless is badly pitted, causing a poor hose seal. This is NOT rotted through. I'm no expert, but my feeling that this is galvanic...

I'm mounting a blue ray player under my head unit, and need to run hdmi to the other side of the boat. The most direct route, is through an interior panel over the slider....but I cannot find ANY hardware that holds it up. I'm starting to think screws are under the slider frame, which turns...

I have a zinc anode under the boat (different than the transom anode) that has me curious if i have a problem, or not. It has collected a ton of marine growth, and is not really wearing. Comparing to the other anodes, Tabs, Transom, Shafts....this one looks new (in terms of wear, not sitting...

I'm going to take on this job of replacing the sanitation hose this season, and needs some advice. I have the original rubber hose (1 1/2"), and started to notice some checking in the tight radius', along with a slight odor up close. Its not leaking, but the stink alone....its time to replace...

My cabin windshield started to leak (under heavy rain) and I need to remove and re-seal. I figure that replacing the weather stripping is a must (finding a source may be difficult, not sure yet). What is involved? what caulking or glues is suggested? And the $100K questions is what is the...
